About Diana

I am currently a nursing student wanting to put what I have learned thus far to practice as a caregiver. I believe we learn most through practice and experience. I have done my fundamentals, med/surg, and mental health clinicals at two hospitals and a rehabilitation home. What attracted me to being a caregiver is being able to help others and making a difference. I find what I do as a very rewarding job. I also enjoy learning through caregiving and being a companion.

I was in the restaurant business for twenty years before my father became ill. I chose to quit my job and take care of him until he passed away. It was the best, most rewarding experience of my life and I would like to continue taking care of others.
